    I am going to use this as an opportunity to force myself to get my butt up early and workout. If I can just swim for 30 minutes in the morning and burn 250 calories before I work I should be okay. Good Luck!

    I guess my advantage of still being a "big" girl...I can get in the burn in a smaller amount of time! I can get in 20 minutes on an elliptical at work during my lunch hour & 20 minutes of Zumba at home, then I need a whole 15 more calories everyday! At least M-F! 10 minutes of cleaning & I got it! :o)

    Can I join if I'm only 29? With 3 kids, I feel like I'm closer to 40 most days. That's got to count for something right? lol

    First report due to your captain is Sunday July 3rd. You only need to hit 1,500 calories for the first weigh in since there are only 3 days. To make it easy, just friend your captain (if you aren't already). On weigh in night (every Sunday) just let your captain know how many total calories you burned from excercise. We'll compile the data and post it to this thread. Since this weekend is the 4th of July holiday, I'll post the first "weeks" results on Tuesday when I get back into town from vacation.

    GOOD LUCK TO EVERYBODY.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Jared

    PS...good natured trash talking is always welcome. Somebody's going to end up in a swimsuit in 31 days.....will it be you? It won't be me.

    This sounds like an awesome challenge, but I'm not quite up to burning 3500cal/week. Hopefully you'll do it again so I can join next time. Good luck ladies!
